Only on some issues, not on many others.

4. No, she's not a liberal. She's a conservative leaning Democrat. |

6. Hell no. But I am, and that's why I was never thrilled about her candidacy. |

We don't have a real liberal left in the running in the total sense of the word.

13. The way I think of the terms, I'd be more likely to call Clinton a liberal |
|
than a progressive.
"Liberal" tends to describe more social policy, in my opinion, and she is arguably, at least, liberal in that regard.
But progressive? A progressive corporatist? I don't think so.

14. Why don't you ask if Obama is a liberal or progressive |
|
If the numbers reverse, you'll have your answer as to how people are voting.
